TLT instead of BLT Sandwich. Great recipe for TLT instead of BLT Sandwich. Are you a fan of bacons? How about having a BLT sandwich for your Sunday morning with a cup of coffee or tea?

Vegetarians can still enjoy the flavors of a BLT by substituting the bacon with tempeh bacon creating a TLT instead.

Today I'm sharing a recipe for smoky tempeh slices that are just perfect as a sandwich filling.

They are super easy to make and packed full of flavour.

You can have TLT instead of BLT Sandwich using 11 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Ingredients of TLT instead of BLT Sandwich

  1. Prepare of bread any choices (I used organic bread called Powerseed, we are staying away from white bread).

  2. You need of Refried bean.

  3. Prepare of Lettuce (washed and drained up).

  4. It’s of Tomatoes sliced.

  5. You need of Bell peppers (optional).

  6. You need of Tofu (I used 1/2 silky tofu then sliced it in 1/2 inch thick).

  7. Prepare of Soy sauce.

  8. You need of Ground ginger.

  9. You need of Mushrooms powder.

  10. You need of Chili flakes (optional).

  11. You need of Oil (optional) I don’t use oil.

Add some lettuce, slices of juicy tomato and a dollop of mayonnaise and you have a delicious vegan alternative to the classic BLT sandwich - the 'TLT' (Tempeh, Lettuce, Tomato).

Especially not when I have delicious tofu that can be made into a yummy Vegan BLT Sandwich (aka TLT - Tofu, Lettuce & Tomato Sandwich) Tofu is kind of a magic ingredient, it can be flavoured in so many ways, and one of my favourites is to turn it into a smokey crispy bacon alternative.

Meet the "TLT" - a satisfying, flavor-packed Vegan BLT Sandwich.

A delicious veganized version of the classic BLT made with savory tempeh bacon, lettuce, and tomato.

TLT instead of BLT Sandwich step by step

  1. First, marinated the tofu with soy sauce, ginger, and mushrooms powder for about 5-7 minutes)..

  2. Then spread the refried bean over the bread evenly, sprinkle with chili flake if you like. Then toasted for about 4 minutes (less or more) depends on how crunchy the bread you want..

  3. While the bread is toasting, heat up the non-stick pan (you can spray it with cooking oil or brushing with little oil, but I don’t) add marinated tofu into the pan and cook it until it turns golden brown then flipped over and cook the other side as well until golden brown. I like to cook mine until crispy..

  4. Now time to assembly: On the cutting board places 2 breads and arrange the lettuce on top, added tofu, tomatoes, and bell peppers (optional) then cover both breads with another two bread..

  5. Tadaaa, your TLT are ready. Enjoy❤️.

  6. Note: This recipe is #oilfree #lowfat #lowcarb #lowglycemic.

Behold… a veganized version of the classic BLT sandwich!

Pat dry with a paper towel and place on the prepared baking sheet.

My BLTs are the best BLTs because I marinate my tomatoes in Italian seasonings, salt, pepper, olive oil, and balsamic reduction.

The bread is lightly toasted and it is served with LOTS of big thick bacon, mayo, and romaine lettuce.

This bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich is AMAZING.
